Disclosure statement The business I am applying for the permit for is only going to be on line. All of the products that will be sold will drop ship from my vendors to the customer. The only items that will have customers visiting the premises is possibly an occasional firearm purchase for someone local, wherein they would stop by when it arrives and fill out the required state and federal background forms, or a firearm that needs some sort of repair. The whole business other than that situation will be done from my laptop computer. It’s really more of a spare time hobby type of business. I will still be working my full time regular job and will not necessarily have posted hours of business, more of a “by appointment” situation. Any firearms that are received for the occasional local customer will be stored properly until said customer passes their background just like they were when this was a full on brick and mortar retail store. I do not see sections 3) through 10) on the application as pertinent to my situation, with no construction or building going on or any major traffic or parking needs. 2020 AGENDA ITEM Committee of the Whole Meeting date: __5-19-2020________________ Council Meeting date: ___6-2-2020_______ ___________ ITEM: ___ Consider & take action to name the recreation area Butterfly Trails Volunteer Park on River Road DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF SUBJECT MATTER: At the 5-19-2020 COW Meeting the consensus was to name the area Butterfly Trails Volunteer Park.
